The Z-B community has more local services available
and others on the horizon. But how would a resident know
where to begin in the process, enhancing his/her life?
This is not about helping any single identified group, but about
creating a system that will benefit all residents. Through a
grant provided by The Lake County Community Foundation,
Community Collaboration Incorporated (CCI) PEC Partners
are able to provide twenty-five agencies that serve the
Zion-Benton community with comprehensive case
management tools for collaboration and specialized
consulting services.
The MPOWR system offers a unique, computer-based,
14-domain case management program. This innovative case
management database helps create individualized goals and
plans for residents allowing for the integration of service
delivery with other agencies, to avoid duplication and prevent
gaps in services. With CREW coordinating this project, the
goal is to create both a physical and virtual Internet based
one-stop location for resources within Pearce Campus.
Members of PEC have agreed to either use the system or act
as a referral source.
For more information, please visit CCI at http://cciunites.org
or any of the following agencies that best serve your need.
Success Stories
“I have a gentleman
that was in need of
furniture and was
given a referral to
LOVE INC. The referral
was given 5/20/09 and
due to the fact that he
is a CCI client, his
referral was processed
in 3 weeks and items
were scheduled to be
received on the week
of June 20th.
Normally there is a
minimal 6 week
waiting period at least.
In addition, my client
attended a finance
class presented by
LOVE INC. and has
signed up for the six
week session. The
client stated that he
feels more HOPEFUL
knowing that he has
SUPPORT.”
